A Presidential Visit?

The neighborhood gossip mill is running rampant this week. It seems the three- year renovation project on the neighborhood’s historic 33,000 sq. ft. mansion will be completed at the end of the summer. The previous seven sitting presidents have all visited the mansion. The gay guys who own the mansion want to make it eight sitting presidents. They have invited the Obamas to visit the mansion. Given the guys are big supporters of the Democratic Party and are really wealthy, I suspect there may be a presidential visit later this year.

Each time a president has visited the mansion, the secret service has blocked off most of the streets to vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Residents could only access the street they live on. If the Obamas visit, at best, I may get to see a caravan of black SUV’s and limos drive by. The event will become a non-event.

I think I am so tired of hearing about the future election that I almost at the point of blocking it all out. Every time Obama comes to Philly its just a mess since the main road into town and to the airport are blocked and diverted. Sad that I feel that way about our President visiting but alas it always for the wealthy contributors or the high donors. I wish they would just let them be elected for 8 years and then be done with it all. That way we actually have a president in the last year or two of an election year instead of someone off stomping for more votes. Sigh I guess I am not in a very electorial mood tonight
